Deepak Chopra's Mindful Method for Fitbit consists of 10 sessions covering topics such as stress management, breathing, sleep, and happiness. According to Fitbit, new content will be added through the beginning of June, so Premium users will have plenty of mindfulness practices to enjoy over the next few months. [Fitbit Premium costs $9.99/month or $80/year, but new users get a 90-day free trial, which is extended to six months with the purchase of Fitbit Sense. Fitbit Sense also has special features to help you get the most out of the Mindful Method.
